    You don’t have time for that 45 minute jog.

    You need something fast, efficient, and leaves you wanting more. 


    My favorite tool for this is the CAR.O.L. She is a life-changing bike, that provides you all the endurance you need into two 20 second bursts. 

    Yes, you read that right. 

    That’s 40 seconds of max-effort, including the warm up and cool downs, you get a kick-ass workout in 8 minutes and 40 seconds. 


    The CAR.O.L is a resistance bike powered by artificial intelligence, which personalizes and optimizes the resistance, so you hit your maximum intensity levels and maximize glycogen depletion every single time. 

    The proof is really in the pudding. CAR.O.L’s effectiveness was independently verified by the American Council on Exercise. I gave the CAR.O.L bike spin at Health Optimization Summit in London this year, and she kicked my ass so much that I had to get one.

  • Exploring the Next Frontier: a Deep Dive Into Peptides with Jean Francois Tremblay

    Peptides and performance enhancing drugs are an often-misunderstood topic. Jean-Francois Tremblay discusses the differences between SARMs and Peptides, the repairing peptides (BPC157), growth hormone, and many others.


    Who is Jean-Francois Tremblay? 


    Jean-François Tremblay studied Exercise Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pharmacy.


    He is now, a student and researcher at UQAM. He has been researching (in theory and in practice) peptides and SARMS since the 90s and published multiple studies on this matter, based on his own research. He had been studying the theoretical basis on what peptides are and their practical applications in sports performance, anti-aging, and health in general.


    His most recent work has been based on the premisses that the loss of muscle function (loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia), muscle strength (dynapenia) and muscle quality (muscle strength / mass)) begins at the age of 30 and continues exponentially with age in all the individuals.


    The mechanisms responsible for the loss of muscle function in the elderly are not yet well known, but probably involve various systems (physiological and neuromuscular) and this, in particular, is the main object of study of the CanLab laboratory. Jean Francois Tremblay is a biochemist that has dealt with peptide, SARMS, both in theory and in practice since the early 1990s.



    Highlights


    [3:23] What are peptides

    [8:18] The various effects that peptides can provide for people

    What brands of blue light blockers do we recommend? 

    BluBlox is definitely a go to. 

    The CEO Andy Mant on the show before where we got into a really deep dive on blue light. If you get any amount of blue light in your glasses, no matter if it’s 3%, 10%, it disrupts melatonin production. So Andy has created blue light blockers that hold up to the highest standards. And in fact, you can see he’s tested it versus other brands and that they always come out on top.

    Quality matters.

  • Longevity, Lectins, and LPS with Dr. Steven Gundry

    International bestselling author Dr. Steven Gundry joins the show to talk about all things lectins: how to test, why we should avoid lectins, and why there are certain types of lectins that are worse than others. In addition, we talk about the carnivore diet, peptides, and alcohol.


    Who is Dr. Steven Gundry? 


    Dr. Steven Gundry is a renowned heart surgeon, celebrity doctor, medical researcher and a New York Times best-selling author. Dr. Gundry worked in medicine for over 40 years. He’s probably best known for the work as a cardiothoracic surgeon and heart surgeon… but today his focus is on something very different:


    In 2002 Gundry abandoned his career as a cardiothoracic surgeon to establish The Center for Restorative Medicine, claiming to have discovered some unconventional truths about human nutrition. He has since authored two books focused on food-based health interventions, recommending a plant-based diet. You might have read his books, “The Plant Paradox: The Hidden Dangers in “Healthy” Food That Cause Disease and Weight Gain” and he’s now tackling gut health and many of the myths surrounding healthy aging in “The Longevity Paradox: How to Die Young at a Ripe Old Age.”


    He’s a leading expert on the lectin-free diet and believes we have the ability to heal ourselves through nutrition when certain dietary obstacles are removed. 


    Dr. Gundry’s mission is to improve people’s health, happiness, and longevity by making simple changes to the human diet. He’s the Director and Founder of the International Heart & Lung Institute as well as the Center for Restorative Medicine in Palm Springs and Santa Barbara, CA. Every day at these offices, Dr. Gundry helps patients learn how to take control of their weight, health, and energy by using his surprisingly simple diet advice.


    Highlights


    [2:57] Dr. Gundry explains what is the holobiome

    [5:34] Discussing what are lectins

    [15:04] The types of food that should be avoided

    [20:54] Testing for lectin sensitivity

    [27:31] Theories for coronary artery disease and cardiovascular disease

  • The Amazing Health Benefits Of Algae with Catharine Arnston

    Let's discuss all things algae. We dive deep into chlorella and spirulina discussing the benefits of both. Catherine Arnston joins the show to speak about the use and the effect on algae in different diets.


    Who is Catharine Arnston?


    Catharine Arnston started ENERGYbits after her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would help her heal. Catharine immediately sprung into action to help her sister research alkaline foods and in the process she discovered algae. When Catharine learned that algae was the most alkaline, plant-based, nutrient-dense food in the world and had been used for fifty years in Asia to improve health and longevity, she knew she had discovered something big (and yes, her sister fully recovered - thanks for asking). 


    As Catharine dug into the science of algae, she learned it had 64% protein, 40 vitamins/minerals and was endorsed by the United Nations and NASA as the most nutrient-dense food in the world. She also discovered there were 100,000 studies documenting its long list of benefits and it was the most sustainable, eco-friendly food crop in the world. And yet algae remained virtually unknown outside of Asia. How could this be possible? Catharine knew algae could be a game-changer for our health, our children and our world if she could only convince people it wasn't weird. And so ENERGYbits was born. 


    It took Catharine eight years to bring algae into the mainstream and build ENERGYbits into a national company. We're glad she finally did because now you and your family can benefit from our naturally grown, toxin-free, Non-GMO algae tablets too. A handful will help satisfy your hunger, help give you steady energy, and help ensure your nutritional needs are met. All this from a food that has one ingredient, no chemicals, caffeine, sugar or processing and is the most sustainable, safe, eco-friendly, crop in the world - algae.


    Highlights


    [2:30] What is algae and why should it be a part of a human’s diet?

    [6:30] The differences between algae and seaweed

    [8:10] Overview of spirulina

    [15:41] The health benefits of chlorella 

    [25:57] How did Catharine get into algae?

    [31:50] The process of cracking the hard cell wall of chlorella

    [37:23] How can we get K2 from algae?

    [42:29] What are phytonutrients?

    [54:06] Catharine’s opinion on the UN investigating spirulina as a solution to world hunger

    Today, so many health issues come from a lack of nutrients in our agriculture. Well, where agriculture falls short, aquaculture is quickly picking up the slack! Spirulina is a type of algae that has been recognized as one of the world’s healthiest foods.


    With so many reasons to take it, including detox, immune support, and better athletic performance, chlorella will soon be in green smoothies across the country!


    There is an amazing amount of nutrition in spirulina and chlorella. NASA even grows spirulina to be used as a nutritionally dense source of food for astronauts in space!


    ENERGYbits have three times as much protein as steak and far more protein than soy, nuts or any other protein option. Even better, this plant-based protein is highly absorbable and bio-available to your body.


    Spirulina and Chlorella are superfoods like no other.

  • How to Live Forever with Dr. Aubrey de Grey

    This episode will take you through Dr. Aubrey de Grey’s Seven Pillars of aging, the research that he's currently doing, his opinion on biological age, AGEs and the different sources, and the impact of growth hormone on biological age.


    Who is Dr. Aubrey de Grey?


    Aubrey de Grey is an English author and biomedical gerontologist. He is the Chief Science Officer of the SENS Research Foundation and VP of New Technology Discovery at AgeX Therapeutics, Inc.

    He is the editor-in-chief of the academic journal Rejuvenation Research, author of The Mitochondrial Free Radical Theory of Aging and co-author of Ending Aging. He is known for his view that medical technology may enable human beings alive today not to die from age-related causes.


    He is also an amateur mathematician who has contributed to the study of the Hadwiger–Nelson problem.

    His research focuses on whether regenerative medicine can prevent the aging process. He works on the development of what he calls "Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence" (SENS), a collection of proposed techniques to rejuvenate the human body and stop aging. 


    To this end, he has identified seven types of molecular and cellular damage caused by essential metabolic processes. SENS is a proposed panel of therapies designed to repair this damage. De Grey is an international adjunct professor of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, a fellow of the Gerontological Society of America, the American Aging Association, and the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies.


    He has been interviewed in recent years in a number of news sources, including CBS 60 Minutes, the BBC, The New York Times, Fortune Magazine, The Washington Post, TED, Popular Science, The Colbert Report, Time, the Skeptics' Guide to the Universe, and The Joe Rogan Experience. 

    He is also a member of Flooved advisory board.

    Our sponsor today is CAR.O.L 


    You don’t have time for that 45 minute jog.

    You need something fast, efficient, and leaves you wanting more. 


    My favorite tool for this is the CAR.O.L. She is a life-changing bike, that provides you all the endurance you need into two 20 second bursts. 

    Yes, you read that right. 


    That’s 40 seconds of max-effort, including the warm up and cool downs, you get a kick-ass workout in 8 minutes and 40 seconds. 


    The CAR.O.L is a resistance bike powered by artificial intelligence, which personalizes and optimizes the resistance, so you hit your maximum intensity levels and maximize glycogen depletion every single time. 


    The proof is really in the pudding. CAR.O.L’s effectiveness was independently verified by the American Council on Exercise. I gave the CAR.O.L bike spin at Health Optimization Summit in London this year, and she kicked my ass so much that I had to get one. 


    Check out CAR.O.L at carolfitai.com 


    If you have limited time and want an amazing workout, which basically everyone that listens to this show does, use the code DECODING150 for a big discount, head over to CarolfitAI.com to secure yours.
